Bolivian President Arrives In IranBolivian President Evo Morales has arrived in Iran to discuss trade and closer ties with his Iranian counterpart Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. His visit follows a trip made by Mr Ahmadinejad to La Paz last year, during which he pledged a $1.1bn (£600m) investment in the Andean nation. The trip will be closely watched by the US, which has tense relations with Tehran over its nuclear programme. Mr Morales has also been in Libya, for talks with leader Muammar Gaddafi. Bolivia and Libya recently established diplomatic relations and the two men were expected to sign energy agreements. Mr Morales and his trade delegation were met from the plane at Tehran airport by Iran's Industries Minister Ali Akbar Mehrabian. He was due to meet Mr Ahmadinejad later in the day, Iranian press reported.
